DOMCount
 

DOMCount uses the provided DOM API to parse an XML file, constructs the DOM tree and walks through the tree counting the elements (using just one API call).

Building on Windows
 

Load the xerces-c-1_1_0-win32\samples\Projects\Win32\VC6\samples.dsw Microsoft Visual C++ workspace inside your MSVC IDE. Then build the project marked DOMCount.


Building on UNIX
 
cd xerces-c-1_1_0-linux/samples
./runConfigure -p<platform> -c<C_compiler> -x<C++_compiler>
cd DOMCount
gmake

This will create the object files in the current directory and the executable named DOMCount in ' xerces-c-1_1_0-linux/bin' directory.

To delete all the generated object files and executables, type

gmake clean

Running DOMCount
 

The DOMCount sample parses an XML file and prints out a count of the number of elements in the file. To run DOMCount, enter the following

DOMCount <XML file>

To use the validating parser, use

DOMCount -v <XML file>

Here is a sample output from DOMCount

cd xerces-c-1_1_0-linux/samples/data
DOMCount -v personal.xml
personal.xml: 20 ms (37 elems)

The output of both versions should be same.

NoteThe time reported by the system may be different, depending on your processor type.
